Looks good but i really really preffered it when it was lifted. Just looks better imo. why did you decide to drop it when you got it?

I loved the lifted look as well, reason I bought it. After a month of me having it it rode like ass. So after a few months of thinking about it - fix all the broke suspension (rear shocks were missing rubber from eyelets, front drivers spring had perch fingers all bent letting spring slide around, two tires had less than half tread) or drop with a new suspension. I've always had lowered cars (camaro w/ 2"drop and a bagged Lincoln town car) but wanted something lifted and 4x4. I talked myself out of 4x for some reason and (I kick myself everyday for this) passed up a 96 2dr 4x with the diesel engine. I didn't know that I should have bought that until I had read through this forum. :banghead:
So I just dropped it. I want to find that 2dr so when I do I'll buy that (wife says I have to get rid of the camaro if I want something else). Really I don't know why I bought lifted and dropped it but I usually don't have a reason and it pisses my wife off because I'm so extreme but my buddies love it because its entertaining to them.
